Default +value is 100. Result-sets for backends without named result sets are +only re-used if databases is identical for a search. This is under the +assumption that performance may suffer for those backends when +changing the database for each search. + +multi: combines diagnostics from all backends. All diagnostics from +backends are combined into multiple non-surrogate diagnostics; rather +than just one diagnostic from first backend. + +--- 1.3.21 2011/12/27 + +zoom: relay realm to cproxy parameter file. + +Configuration: Allow filter collection element inside route. This +makes it possible to include multiple filters at once. + +zoom: nocproxy also disables urlRecipe. + +--- 1.3.20 2011/12/21 + +zoom: return diagnostic if CQL sortby conv fails. Diagnostic Bib-1 214 +"Illegal sort relation" is returned. Gets translated to SRU diagnostic +90: "Unsupported direction value". + +zoom: honor database argument nocproxy. This disables creating a content +connector session (for non-CF targets, usually) and also relays nocproxy +as database argument to a CF target. + +--- 1.3.19 2011/12/16 + +zoom: Multiple proxy hosts may be given for proxy rich database +parameter. List is comma separated. + +http_file: decodes URI paths properly. Does not return 404: not found +if no prefix are matches. Instead packages are passed on. + +--- 1.3.18 2011/12/08 + +zoom: content-{user,password,proxy} are passed on to content proxy +system and takes precedence over user,password,proxy . + +sru_z3950: SRU extra argument x-log-enable=1 enables a search response +with a log element including log material from children filters. At +this point, only the zoom filter uses this log facility. It will +eventually be used by other filters as well. In particular it might be +useful for this feature to track all filters in used during a search. + +zoom: for x-log-enable=1, APDUs sent by ZOOM C, records as received +and queries as they are manipulated are logged. + +zoom: extend addinfo with native diagnostics. Diagnostics as received +by ZOOM C are put into addinfo - including ZOOM, HTTP, SRU and Bib-1 +diagnostics. This indicates both a backend diagnostic and the original +form. + +zoom: default urlRecipe value is ${md-electronic-url} + +zoom: target profile setting sruVersion is recognized. + +--- 1.3.17 2011/11/17 + +zoom: log target profile record fetched (AKA Torus). + +--- 1.3.16 2011/11/17 + +Change target profile parameter CfSubDb to CfSubDB. + +--- 1.3.15 2011/11/12 + +zoom: bug fix: realm was relayed to CF targets by mistake (realm only +makes sense to the zoom module itself). + +--- 1.3.14 2011/11/11 + +zoom: realm may be given as part of database. + +--- 1.3.13 2011/10/26 + +Fix Origin class assigment method; was removd by mistake in 1.3.12. + +--- 1.3.12 2011/10/26 + +zoom: database args x-name=value are passed through to backend database. + +SRU filter: user may specify session ID that is passed to log entries +that follows. It is specified by using x-session-id in the SRU arguments. + +zoom: fix null pointer reference which would occur for bad url parameter +inside "torus" or if url was not given. + +--- 1.3.11 2011/09/09 +Fix bug in filter session_shared where sessions would not expire +properly (session ttl). This in turn could make the target close the +connection before expected and session_shared would return diagnostic +2: system temporarily available. + +--- 1.3.10 2011/09/09 + +zoom: new target profile setting: sortmap_field. If sortmap_field is given +the field is mapped to the value for the sortmap. Values not matching +sortmap_field are passed verbatim. + +zoom: new target profile setting: sortStrategy. One of: "z3950", "type7", +"cql", "sru11" or "embed". The "embed" chooses type-7 or CQL sortby +depending on whether RPN or CQL is actually sent to the target. + +--- 1.3.9 2011/08/25 + +zoom: urlRecipe result is stored in . + +zoom: For content proxy authentication is stored in param name +"auth", instead of "authentication". + +--- 1.3.8 2011/08/22 + +zoom: relay schema in SRU mode. Previously recordSchema was not affected +by elementSet. + +--- 1.3.6 2011/08/22 + +zoom: new target profile element literalTransform that holds XSLT +(encoded as string) for target. Only if present and non-zero length it is +considered present. This takes precedence over transform. + +Don't rely on trang anymore for Git checkout builds. Configuration in etc +will only be properly validated if trang is available. From now on only +relax NC files are bundled with the source dist. + +Updates to check for Boost unit test (autoconf stuff). On MacOSX this +component was not detected when it should be. + +--- 1.3.5 2011/08/12 + +z3950_client: mark non-surrogate diagnostics from backend. + +zoom: a proxy may be specified for HTTP fetch of target profiles. + +--- 1.3.4 2011/08/01 + +Honor piggyback. Makes some SRU targets behave that insist on +maximumRecords > 0, but also increases performance. + +--- 1.3.3 2011/08/01 + +Fix dlpath in installed metaproxy.xml for RPM/Deb package. The +file was not update for libdir/metaproxy4 in version 1.3.2. + +--- 1.3.2 2011/08/01 + +Change location of Metaproxy modules from libdir/metaproxy to +libdir/metaproxy4. Directory libdir/metaproxy is also owned by +libmetaproxy3 and, thus, should not be used by libmetaproxy4. + +New facility to dump APDUs from zoom filter. Enabled by + in the zoom filter configuation. + +zoom filter bug fix: SRU diagnostics received from backend was +not properly converted to Bib-1 diagnostics. + +Package metaproxy depends on libmetaproxy4, same version. + +--- 1.3.1 2011/07/28 + +zoom: fix a bug WRT passing authentication parameters to backends. + +--- 1.3.0 2011/07/27 + +Fixes for windows Makefile. + +--- 1.2.10 2011/07/25 + +Change major version of metaproxy library from 3 to 4. This in turn +makes new package names for Debian and RPM. + +--- 1.2.9 2011/06/27 + +zoom: enable marc-8 encoding by default for usmarc and opac (in pz2 +transforn mode). + +zoom: configurable element sets for record transforms. + +zoom: the target profile based transform is specified by element_transform +in element torus of of the ZOOM filter configuration ; default value +is "pz2". Target profile based retrieval is specified by element_raw +in configuration. It will perform same steps, but omit the XSL transform. +Default value is "raw". + +zoom: element set is omitted if not set in profile. But only if pz2 +transform is in effect. Previously the default element set was to "F". + +zoom: For non-CF targets database arguments are parsed. User may supply +db,user=myuser&password=mypass for non-CF targets. These values override +what's given the authentication from the target profile. + +session_shared: fix reference to freed memory. Would occur if a search +response had non-surrogate diagnostics. + +--- 1.2.8 2011/06/22 + +Route may be given for each port in frontend_net. + +--- 1.2.7 2011/06/22 + +Documentation for zoom filter. Local target profiles may be specified. + +Fixes for zoom filter. + +--- 1.2.6 2011/06/15 + +First version with zoom filter. + +--- 1.2.5 2011/05/06 + +Filter z3950_client may be configured to always send a close APDU +to backend target when connection/session is closed. This will only +happen if close APDU is not already sent. Enabled by configuration +for z3950_client (force_close). + +Filter virt_db and multi: relay close APDU. + +Filter virt_db and multi: relay init size parameters +preferredMessageSize and maximumRecordSize. + +Filter sru_z3950: increase init sz parameters from 1MB to 10 MB. + +--- 1.2.4 2011/01/27 + +RPM package for Metaproxy works for both SLES11 and Centos 5.5. + +metaproxy-config: exec_prefix, libdir, includedir. Use these variables +as determined by configure. + +RPM: Release includes 'indexdata' name. Use indexdata in release name so +this package can be distinguished from other vendors. + +--- 1.2.3 2010/10/04 + +Fix filter multi: relay idAuthentication parameters. + +--- 1.2.2 2010/09/15 + +Add metaproxy-config for returning compiler flags, libraries. + +--- 1.2.1 2010/08/18 + +Fix --with-boost=PREFIX . + +--- 1.2.0 2010/07/09 + +session_shared: fix use of maintenance thread. + +Introduce 'start' method for filters and routers. It gets called after +configure and after fork, but before processing. This changes API - +from libmetaproxy2 to libmetaproxy3. + +--- 1.1.7 2010/06/30 + +session_shared: ensure backend session is closed if init rejected +is received. + +z3950_client: fix NULL ptr reference that could occur if two clients +connected concurrently and if max-sockets was in effect. + +--- 1.1.6 2010/06/21 + +Fix bug 3497 - Metaproxy unstable while stopping. + +Fix bug 3495 - SEGV in SRU filter. + +--- 1.1.5 2010/06/15 + +Filter multi throws diagnostic 'Present Out of Range' when +appropriate - rather than returning 0 records. + +Filter virt_db: fix bad result reuse. Could happen if a result +was overriden and a backend did not supported named result sets. + +--- 1.1.4 2010/05/11 + +Filter log: category access logs diagnostics even if searchStatus +or presentStatus is 'success'. + +--- 1.1.3 2010/04/21 + +The SRU to Z39.50 filter does repeated Z39.50 present requests +to fetch all records. Needed when a Z39.50 server returns partial +results (due to message size limits). + +--- 1.1.2 2010/03/18 + +Metaproxy now kills all child processes that are spawned by +modules (in case of fork, exec). + +--- 1.1.1 2010/01/28 + +Debian package now installs /etc/metaproxy/metaproxy.xml which +includes all XML files /etc/metaproxy/filters-enabled . +The include facility uses YAZ' yaz_xml_include_simple (YAZ 4.0.1). + +--- 1.1.0 2010/01/20 + +Package based on YAZ version 4 and YAZ++ 1.2.0. It now includes a +development package to facilitate 3rd party Metaproxy modules. + +--- 1.0.23 2010/01/04 + +Filter virt_db: Close backend filter session when Init rejected is received +from it (in which case it's not really closed yet). This will ensure we don't +run out of resources such as FDs in this case. + +sru_z3950 filter: Accept any database (including those not listed). + +--- 1.0.22 2009/12/03 + +Prepare for 64-bit YAZ. yazproxy will still work with YAZ++ 1.1.4 or +later which means YAZ 3.0.47 or later. + +--- 1.0.20 2009/11/19 + +For filter virt_db, the database is a glob pattern and the virtual +database sections are consulted in the order given. + +--- 1.0.19 2009/07/08 + +For filter multi, the target (for routing) may be given as a glob-pattern. + +More documentation for filters virt_db and multi. + +Update schema to allow for no database in sru_z3950 filter. + +--- 1.0.18 2009/06/30 + +Added limit filter to put sleep (penalty) for heavy use. + +Filter frontend_net may be configured to limit the number of new connections +from same IP to some value (connect-max). + +Fixed the load_balance filter. + +--- 1.0.17 2009/06/16 + +Fix path for metaproxy executable for Debian init.d script. + +--- 1.0.16 2009/06/10 + +SRU to Z39.50 filter honors x-username and x-password. If only +x-username is given that translates to open authentication (Z39.50v2). If +both x-username and x-password is present that translates to idPass +authentication (Z39.50v3). + +New facility to change current working directory (-w). + +Update to upstream skeleton of init.d script. Should fix bug #2619. + +Filter session_shared now caches records (used to only cache connections +and result sets). + +Filter session_shared now invalidates a Z39.50 session if a server +returns -1 hits. This facility was also part of yazproxy and gets around +a bug in Voyager-based Z39.50 servers. + +--- 1.0.15 2008/11/18 + +Fixed reference counting bug in Z39.50 client module (could cause SEGV). + +--- 1.0.14 2008/06/09 + +Fixed the value of SRU record schema in searchRetrieve response. It was set +to a fixed value of "dc" before. + +Serialize identical SRU requests. This is useful if HTTP client software +fires identical requests against metaproxy. + +Allow Z39.50 target to be specified for SRU requests by using SRU extra +parameter x-target. Allows SRU to contact arbitrary Z39.50 targets and +avoid static configuration. This facility is handled by the sru_z3950 module +and the z3950_client module. + +Allow maximum number of sockets to be used for a Z39.50 client by the +use of SRU extra parameter x-max-sockets. This facility is handled by the +sru_z3950 module and the z3950_client module. + +--- 1.0.13.1 2008/02/29 + +Simplified check for Boost libraries. + +--- 1.0.13 2008/02/29 + +First Debian package. + +The sru_z9350 filter now recognizes SRU parameter z-target as being +a ZURL of the form host/database . + +Mergetype may be specified for filter 'multi'. + +--- 1.0.12 2007/09/19 + +Fixed problem in Makefile WRT library specifictions. This could produce +linker errors (when they should not happen). + +Fixed bug #1341: MetaProxy returning different results. Problem was that +fix-up of record database did not normalize the database name. + +Documentation updates for Windows compilation. + +--- 1.0.11 2007/06/14 + +Fixed problem with logfile being truncated. + +--- 1.0.10 2007/05/23 + +Fixed bug #1136: Access rights not enforced. + +Extension for log module. The log category 'access' logs more details. +New category 'user-access' added which is simlar to 'access' but adds +the Z39.50 user as for all entries in a session. + +Switched to GPL v2. + Added support for configurable default/force target/vhost for module Z39.50 client module.
